Precautions and Required Safeguards
AdeptSix 300CR Robot Instruction Handbook, Rev. A 21
Hazards From Expelling a Part or Attached Tooling
The maximum joint tip speeds that can be achieved by the AdeptSix 300CR robot are
listed in Table 10-1 on page 95. Any tooling, fixtures, end effectors, etc., mounted to the
user flange, or one of the other axes of the robot must be attached by sufficient means to
resist being expelled from the robot. Additionally, any payload must be held by the end
effector in a manner that prevents the payload from being expelled accidentally.
The safety fence or barrier constructed around the robot must be designed to withstand
the impact of any item expelled accidentally from the robot. Projectile energy can be
calculated using the formula E = mv

.
NOTE: In the Projectile energy formula above:
•E = Energy
•m = Mass
•v = Velocity
Additional Safety Information
The standards and regulations listed in this handbook contain additional guidelines for
robot system installation, safeguarding, maintenance, testing, startup, and operator
training. Table 2-1 on page 22 lists some sources for the various standards.
